Au Pair/Pefham Manor, New York.

We are a family of three, living quietly in a single-family residence in Pelham, New York.I am 49 years old, my wife is 47, and our son, David, is 8.We celebrate our birthdays in November and December.David is in fourth grade.We value education highly.My wife and I both earned doctoral degrees in biochemistry, and then came to New York to pursue post-doctoral training.My wife subsequently entered the field of Intellectual Property law and earned her Jurist Doctor (law) degree.When not working, we pursue our individual and common interests.I like to cook and garden.My wife reads avidly and participates in local book clubs.These include religious education, soccer, martial arts, Cub Scouts, and music instruction.He's also happy to watch television, play Run escape, an online adventure game, and read.Family activities are mostly out-of-doors, although we are members of the New York Hall of Science, which we visit several times each year.We are also members of the New York Botanical Garden, which we visit frequently throughout the year. After that, he gets ready to leave the house, and my wife or I walk with him to school, which begins at 8:20 AM.He attends a small neighborhood school that includes grades K-5.We seek an au pair who will join us in helping our son develop good work habits and reach his potential.We try to instill in him the idea that one should fulfill obligations before desires.On an everyday basis, that amounts to homework before screen time (computer and video games and television).Qualities we deem important for an au pair are to be even-tempered and conscientious.For interaction with our son, paying a high level of attention to his educational and life-skills needs is of primary concern.We place a premium on clear two-way communication between our au pair and us.We have a comfortable three-story center-hall colonial, which includes a finished attic on a small but adequate lot.The house has a semi-finished full cellar with a laundry room and 9 additional rooms, including 4 bedrooms, and 3.5 baths. Our proximity to New York City and all it's cultural and social opportunities, which obviously are too numerous to list, is particularly significant.Our house is less than 15 minutes walking from a commuter rail station, and then a 30-minute ride from Grand Central Terminal in the center of Manhattan.
